This sounds kinda strange, but one day a pregnant woman went to the Oracle and asked what gender her baby would be. The Oracle answered, "Girl no boy." Do you think this means the baby would be a girl or a boy?
(Don't write an answer about how you can't tell without proper punctuation and grammar, I know that. This is just for fun to see who thinks what gender the baby would be)

The oracle answered this because she/he would be right whether the child would be a girl OR a boy. "Oracle" often do this trick so the out coming can be interpreted the way you WANT to interpret it

Considering the fact that it's an oracle, it wouldn't be changing it's mind (saying girl....no, boy!). So I think it's saying it's a girl, not a boy.

Well, it would seem that punctuation is quite critical in this case...
It could either be interpreted as: Girl, no (as in "not") boy. Which would indicate the baby is a girl.
OR
It could be read as: Girl. No....boy! Which would indicate that it's a boy.
But my first reaction was the first interpretation so I say it's a girl. :0)
